Jason Alder writes:
"Volta has written a complete method book for the bass clarinet, covering all technical aspects of playing. There’s a fingering chart from C3 to C7, text and exercises for breathing and air, sound and embouchure, intervals, articulation (and how it’s different from clarinet) and different types of tonguing, crossing the break, placement of right hand in clarion, the extreme low register, altissimo (fingerings, voicing and reaching it from another register), large intervals (2.5-3.5 octaves), upper altissimo up to G-sharp7, and transposition. The excerpts are in treble and bass clef. The text is written in English and French."
